Apple Is Putting a Lock on the Mac's Full Disk Access, With AI Agents as the Reason
A regular app asks for access and uses it as written. An agent asks for access and then decides what to do. Apple is making that difference harder to ignore.
Anthropic Will Spend $100M Training 10,000 Engineers, Because the Model Was Never the Bottleneck
The scarce resource in enterprise AI is not model access. It is the person who can make a model safe and useful inside a specific process under specific rules.

The useful change is the trigger. A task can now start when a stranger emails you, which turns the inbox into a prompt injection surface with a spending budget.
Agora-2 Makes the Case That a World Model Is a Multiplayer Machine
A clip has no state. A world has to resolve what several participants write to at once, which is why the four-versus-sixteen test is harder than a demo reel.
